I was using ndiswrapper 1.47, and could connect to my AP without problems (WEP).

However, if I connected to my z555 from another machine, and did anything that caused a lot of traffic, the z555 would drop off the wireless network. It was necessary to rmmod ndiswrapper, and restart the network (which re-loads ndiswrapper) to get it to re-connect. AFAIK, There were no messages in the logs at all when this happened.

Given that large data transfers are common on a machine that is "the center of my multi-media life", this was a major problem.

I had to create a link from 2802W51.sys to 2802W.sys to get it to load the Win98SE drivers, but as soon as I did so, it worked, and the z555 has not dropped off my WiFi network yet, despite several long X-Sessions, Lots of accessing Mythweb, and the transfer of 3 movies.
